"Life brings us experiences which cause us stress, stretch our capacity to cope. We respond with depression and anxiety. We resort to ineffective behaviors such as substance use, attempting to maintain our stability. The impact on us can be devastating and we can spiral out of control, often resulting in a disruption in our relationships, ability to work, ability to manage tasks and affairs and our ability to find satisfaction or meaning in our lives. Using EMDR and mindfulness based approaches to remove blocking emotions and beliefs can help find balance and promote healing."

"Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Do you want to try something different to turn your life around? Do the words 'I'm Stuck' keep playing over and over again inside your mind?

"Responses to pain, trauma, and the unknown are not static. I am committed to working with individuals, couples, and families who are seeking to increase introspection and resilience in relation to life's difficulties. The focus is to actuate potential by more fully understanding personal strengths, perceptions, patterns of behavior, and desires as they are unique to each client. My therapeutic approach is eclectic, and rests on exploring one's internal sense of self as it collides with larger social systems and interpersonal dynamics. Past experiences that inform the present do not have to dictate your future. Change is possible."

"The real potential exists for the transformation of even our most unloved and alienated parts. A lack of safety, care, love and the experience of trauma can leave us disconnected from ourselves, others, and indeed life itself. Relationally oriented and trauma focused psychotherapy can foster integration of these aspects of ourselves, which left abandoned can trigger us into feeling undesirable emotions and act out in unwanted ways towards ourselves and others. Additionally, previously unknown aspects of ourselves can emerge through safe therapeutic relationship. It would be my joy to support you, your child or your family through your healing journey."

"I work with clients suffering from addictions and trauma. Trauma activates and impacts the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, and can cause the reasoning part of the brain, also called the pre-frontal cortex to go offline, making it difficult to talk about feelings and thoughts around the trauma. I have found that action methods can be particularly effective for some trauma clients because it helps move implicit, sometimes fragmented thoughts, sensations, impulses and feelings to the explicit, where they can differentiate and integrate them into a coherent narrative that promotes healing."
